It is well established that the breath-synchronous collapse and reopening of lung areas in ARDS patients causes considerable damage to the lung tissue and that breath-synchronous opening and closing (alveolar cycling) of lung areas in particular is an independent risk factor for higher mortality.

Continuous monitoring and control of the blocked cuff is one of the metric actions to reduce the risk of VAP in ventilated patients in the intensive care unit.

Lung-protective ventilation reduces ventilator-associated complications, in particular by reducing the mechanical pressure and volume load on the lungs.

Lung-protective ventilation reduces ventilator-associated complications, in particular by reducing the mechanical pressure and volume load on the lungs.

Daily awakening trials, propofol syndrome, prompt neurological assessment of the ventilated intensive care patient or reduction of symptomatic transitory psychotic syndrome - there are many motivations for the use of volatile anesthetics in the context of intensive care therapy.

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a bedside method that can be used to reliably determine regional lung function non-invasively and without radiation exposure.

The LEOMETRY from Löwenstein enables simple nutrition monitoring in ventilated patients.

LEOBRAIN from Löwenstein enables simple, bedside monitoring of the depth of sedation.
